ping with output - jacklee26 - Nov-28-2019
i have one question related to output file when ping.
if i type in 8.8.8.8 ip address it will export the ping status to the file, but if i used unreachable ip address, my temp file will only display ###result:FAIL###0.
is there any method i can let it print the same as 8.8.8.8
for example if i type in 8.8.8.8 it will print the ping result to temp.txt, but if i type in unreachable ip address it will only display fail.
is there any method i can also display below when type in unreachable ip address.
Pinging 7.7.7.7 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
i know it related to "TTL=", due to i don't want to display the ping statics
import os
import time
count=0
#hostname = raw_input("enter your ip address(host): ")
hostname = input("enter your ip address(host):")
print ("#################start################")
for i in range (2):
#ping ip address
response = os.system("ping -n 5 " + hostname + " | FIND " + '"TTL=" > tmp.log')
#response = os.system("ping " + hostname + "> tmp.log")
open('tmp.log', 'r').read()
# reset modem by snmp
count = 0
strCount = str(count)
time.sleep( 1 )
if response == 0:
count = count + 1
strCount = str(count)
print ("###result:PASS###",count)
print ("==============================")
fd = open("tmp.log",'a+')
fd.write("###result:PASS###")
fd.write(strCount)
fd.close()
else:
print ("result:FAIL")
fd = open("tmp.log",'a+')
fd.write("###result:FAIL###")
fd.write(strCount)
fd.close()
break
print ("#################end################")
os.system("pause")
#time.sleep( 5 )
#response = os.system("snmpwalk -cpublic -v 2c 192.168.41.15 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.4.5.0 ")
#response = os.system("ping -n 5 " + hostname)

Don't use os.system for that.
Example
from subprocess import check_output
out = check_output(["ping", "-c 5", "8.8.8.8"])
print("".join(map(chr, out)))Output:PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.
